We sing this at our 9:00am Mass every Sunday morning at St. Paul Newman Center Catholic Church in Fresno, CA.
It is very powerful.

It is one of my favorite worship songs to sing at Mass or just anywhere. I absolutely positively affirmatively love it!!!

Lyrics


Refrain
The Lord is kind,
the Lord is kind and merciful.
The Lord is kind and merciful,
merciful; merciful is the Lord.
1. O my soul,
bless the Lord and praise his holy name.
Bless the Lord, O my soul
keep in mind what God has done for me.
2. God forgives,
healing all our pain and sinfulness;
saves us from an empty life,
covers us with gentleness and love.
3. Full of grace,
full of mercy and abundant love,
slow to anger is the Lord;
God does not repay us for our sins.
4. Far as the east from the west,
God placed our sin from us.
God’s compassion rests on us
like a father’s mercy for his own.
